March 4, 2021 / Nirav S

Amazon Location Service is a fully managed service that makes it easy for developers to add location data, such as maps, points of interest, and geocoding to applications, without sacrificing data security, user privacy, data quality, or cost.

You keep the management of your location information with Amazon Location, thus you’ll be able to mix proprietary information with information from the service.

Amazon Location is available in the US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo) Regions

Then click on “try it” button
